Thomas Grae built us a studio space as an addition to our beach home. I really liked working with George and Shaynaeh. They were professional and the work quality was excellent. They were very helpful taking my vision and bringing it to life. This project was especially challenging because I was not at the house or readily accessible in person. We communicated with texts, Zoom and email, so it was challenging especially choosing flooring, fixtures, bathroom tiles. Shaynaeh was really great understanding my taste and bringing finishes that mirrored it for my selection. We definitely recommend them for any reno project.
